The Smithy’s VFL teams for Round 14.
The Brisbane Lions welcome back much-needed reinforcements for their clash with Tasmania at Brighton Homes Arena on Friday.
Henry Smith, Luke Beecken, Reece Torrent and Shadeau Brain all return for the bottom-placed Lions as they desperately hunt their second win of the season.
Smith will play his first game of the year, having been sidelined by a foot issue, while Reece Torrent will play his first game since the Round 8 loss to Geelong when he sustained an ankle injury.
Beecken missed his first game of the year in the brave defeat to Werribee prior to last week’s bye, while Brain has featured at AFL level over the past two weeks.
Tasmania has included veteran forward Sam Siggins, who has booted 16 goals in nine appearances this year.
Teams for all other Round 14 matches will be announced on Friday.
BROADCAST: ABC – Collingwood vs Richmond; Kayo Sports – Carlton vs Werribee
STREAMING: All matches in the 2026 Smithy’s VFL season will be live streamed free via the AFL website, AFL Live Official App and VFL App.
